So many times we make New Year Resolutions or goals for our life and before we know it we are right back to our old habits. It is often hard to make real and lasting change in our lives. So many times we keep trying harder but fail to get the results we set out to achieve. When we continuously seek to change areas of our life and nothing changes, it may be important to see that we cannot achieve our resolutions or goals for the new year on our own. Many times people would rather keep trying and suffering on their own rather than ask for help. A great question to ask is: Do I want to continue on this same path for the rest of my life or do I actually want change? If you do want change and have not been able to get there on your own, counseling is a great place to start. There may be an area of your life that needs to be healed or examined before change can take place. Once that obstacle is removed it may be easier to move forward. While the idea of asking for help may be scary, the benefits certainly make it worthwhile.

Hello blog world, the reluctant blogger is back! Last time I wrote about God’s design for human sexuality. God’s design is not what most folks typically think about when sex is mentioned. Although our culture is sexually saturated, many folks have difficulty talking about sex. When I tell people that I am a Christian sex therapist, often the conversation is suddenly awkward. As a sex therapist, I have specific training to help people deal with the sexual part of their lives and relationships such as problems related to sexual desire, pain during or after sex, erectile difficulties, ejaculation problems, or difficulty reaching orgasm. I also help people recover from sexual abuse/trauma, sexual addiction, or with questions regarding their sexual attractions or sexual orientation. It is a privilege to walk along side people and help them heal and find redemption in the sexual part of their lives. It takes a lot of courage to seek help for sexual issues. God is able to restore the sexual part of our lives. Until next time, Phyllis.
